Jack Helping with the housework

I know, I know it's pink but Jack was desperate to have a broom or a vacuum so what else could a Gran do.

We had Jack to ourselves all afternoon as his Mum has just had her tonsils removed and need some rest.

We had a funny thing happen at bathtime though eeek! I got his hair washed and his body and we were then playing with his bath toys when all of a sudden he let out one almighty pump, which on any other occasion would have been fine but Jack has had a dicky tummy and I can tell you now it wern't just air that came out "blech" we had brown water and he was still in it.

Needless to say I hollowed for Granda and we had to show him down.

Chi - Tiddlyinks

It has been such a long time since I made an Oriental card and then I came accross Christy Croll at Tiddlyinks who is one talented lady, she makes cute fun digital stamps that are sure to please in many a style so theres something for everyone.

The image used for the card is Chi and can be bought here

Coloured with Copic Markers double mounted onto a Bo Bunny designer paper.

Kissing Robins

This just depicts Christmas to me, I simply lurve Robins.

I'm always well pleased when I get a Christmas card with them on.

The Kissing Robins is a new Digital Stamp by Just Inklined, I coloured it using Copic markers and then added Crushed Glass Glitter to the top of the house and around the oval, The base card is embossed with the snowfall Cuttlebug folder and the ovals cut with Nestabilities

Free Halloween Sheet

I've no card prepared for today so I hope you will forgive me, I was at the theatre last night with my Mam to see a play, a very funny one too. I'm not sure if I have already told you how amazing my Mam is but I wanted to tell you that she has started a computer course. When we lost Dad my Mam picked up a computer for the first time and loved it, she views many of the blogs from my Blog Links she surfs the WWW if she needs to find products and the likes and she wanted to know a bit more so she signed herself up and has even set up her own email address.

So rather than a card I know many of you have know started on your Halloween Cards so I've prepared a free sheet to help you on your way.

Autumn Splendour

Don't you just love the Autumnal colours? the trees are now a rainbow of the Autumn shades, vibrant and glowing earthy tones. I tried to capture a bit of that in my next card.

Three Trees is a new Just Inklined Digital Stamp which you can colour for any season, I used Copic Markers and the olives and orange shades then distressed the edges of the cards with distress inks.

Background papers are from Stampin Up the Autumn Ribbon is from my stash and a bit of love to bring it all together.
